Abstract The purpose of the present study is to determine role of patience components(transcendence, patience, persistence, consent and delay) in predicting test anxiety in university students. Participants included 200 students(70 females and 130 males) who were selected using random cluster sampling from Shiraz University and patience components Questionnaire, and test anxiety scale responded. The reliability of the research instruments was determined by Cronbachʹs alpha coefficient and their validity was determined by factorial analysis. The results indicated acceptable reliability and validaity of the instruments. Structural equation modeling(SEM) was used evaluate path analysis of latent variables. The results of path analysis showed that patience are predicting test anxiety. The implications of the findings is that with traning patience components decrease test anxiety in students.
